ENERGY MEDICINE

WHAT IS ENERGY MEDICINE?

Ancient wisdom for today's light worker

The practitioner senses and "works" with the energy flowing inside and outside the client's physical body. As such the energy is refer to as healing energy. Some modality base their practice on the Chakra system other on the Meridian system but all acknowledge the existence of a human energy field often called the auric field as well as a universal energy field. The goal of all modality is to reestablish health and wellness in the client's body, emotional/mental mind and spirit.

The key to healing with energy is frequency and resonance, NOT intensity.

What is healing energy?
The word energy usually makes us think of the electricity that powers the appliances in our home. Yet when looking in the world of matter through a powerful microscope one realized that all matter is just energy. Our very body is just a bundle of energy. The stuff that makes up our bones, our muscles all the cells in our body is the same stuff as what makes up a rock or the air that we breath. Electrons, protons, neutrons... dance with each other the ever changing dance of creation.

Dr. Valerie Hunt, (Infinite Mind) a neurophysiologist and psychologist from Columbia University and the University of California in Los Angeles, has been researching human vibrations for over 20 years. She states, "At the deepest level, all things are composed of vibrations organized into fields that permeate the entire structure." Vibrations affect you by mingling with and changing your own internal vibrations.

Frijtof Capra, author of The Tao of Physics, words it: "Subatomic particles, and all matter made, including our cells, tissues, and bodies, are in fact patterns of activity rather than things."

Brian Greene, Deepak Chopra, Howard Bloom, Stephen Jay Gould, Michael Talbot, David Hawkins, Bert Hellinger and many more have expressed the same concept in their work.–see the bibliography page for information.

The main argument "scientist" propose against energy heaing is that this energy cannot be measured "YET" and that the healing cannot be repeated. Each individual is unique with a specific and unique energy signature; hence it would be ludicrous to expect to discover a healing recipe that works on each and all. The only one that comes close –as a receipe– is prayer. Yet the content of the prayer is unique as well.

However, at the basic level, we're all made of atoms, which are made of electrons, protons, and neutrons. And at an even more basic — or perhaps the most basic — level, those protons and neutrons, which hold the bulk of our mass, are made of a trio of fundamental particles called quarks. Moreover there is so much space sepaarating these quantum particles that 99.9999999%, is empty space!

If 99.9999999% of everythig is empty space, What is holding creation together?
It is consciousness but not just any consciousness. It is Divine Consciousness power by the strongest force of all: Love.

And since we are one with this consciousnes, we are the co- creatore of this reality. Our thoughts, intentions, desires when aligned with Divine Mind (Nous) and in alignment with our Soul's (Psyche) aspiration, then life flows effortlessly and beautifully; Our spirit (Pneuma) and body (soma) are in harmony.

You've never really touched anything in your life
Are you sitting down for this? Well, you're not, really. Your butt isn't actually touching the chair you're sitting on.
Since the meat of your atoms is nestled away in nuclei, when you "touch" someone or something, you aren't actually feeling their atoms. What you're feeling is the electromagnetic force of your electrons pushing away their electrons.

On a very, very technical level, you're not actually sitting on that chair — you're hovering ever so slightly above it.
So to conclude: Your very important human body is really, kind of, in a way, just a misleading collection of empty spaces on an empty planet in an empty universe.

"Out of the formless it born the form." – David Hawkins, The Eye of the I. After reading this book, I decided to create a painting with this intention. I put on a music CD the stimulate theta brain wave and with my palette filled with all the color, I just followed my impulse without any intention to create form and yet it seems that air fire water and earth found expression in this painting.

Why do we appear so tangible?
Masaru Emoto in a compelling series of photographs demonstrated that water can be influence by thought.

This evidence was exposed in the movie "What the bleep do we know" to show the effects of thought and intention on matter.

Sandra Ingerman in Medicine for the Earth proposes that we heal the planet by transmuting toxin in water with our intention (www.sandraingerman.com).

Mary Bakers Eddy in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures advanced that we are pure spirit and what we perceive as real is just an illusion created by what she calls animal magnetism or false perception.

Anne Taylor, author of Secrets of Attraction: The Universal Laws of Love, Sex and Romance and Quantum Success: The Astounding Science of Wealth and Happiness says: "We project energy in our emotions, beliefs, and thoughts, and that is really the source of what and who we attract and the basis of our sense of well-being," The DVD, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne is based on this same premis: what you think/beleive to be true is what you attract.

Others have in other words said the same thing from poets and philosophers to physicists and mathematicians. Such as Vedic scriptures, Naada Tmakam Gagat, "The whole universe is nothing but sound," and as you know, sound is nothing but vibration.2

However despite all this evidence conventional medicine reduces the human being to mere flesh. Probing, cutting, manipulating the body as if they were just part of a giant puzzle, a machine. Ignoring the very essence of life itself which is the coalescent energy that abide in all. The reason for this limited view of ourselves is that our barely 200 years old "science" has studied, up to now, the human body with cadavers devoid of life energy.

Perception + Judgement=Separation.
This process of perception and cataloging gives birth to our ego which accentuates the experience of life here on this plane as individuals, unique and separate from each other and the rest of creation.

Aware of our self, we judge and create the concepts of good and bad in an attempt to label, differentiate and categorize further estranging us from our true nature. This estrangement is the fruit of this thought process rather that the observation of an inherent reality, for good and bad are only abstract concepts.

Nothing is inherently good or inherently bad yet we perceived the result of an action, a thought , a word to engender an effect that is perceived as pleasurable or painful. In essence the source is part of the whole and is neither good nor bad.

Only our perception make this judgment of good and bad. Our experience of the world creates these abstract concept of good and bad or evil and the whole aray of dualistic concepts, individual parts created to organize our world and give us a separate identity.

To become enlightened is to realize the unity and oneness of all these apparent parts that make up the perceivable creation, without denying one's existence and perception. For this reason the harder one tries to escape the perception of the form the stronger felt is the experience by our senses.

Moment of bliss or Nirvana can only last as long as our body function can be ignored or mastered. On the other hands we are subjected to the limitation of our perception or knowledge of ourselves, others and the universe. We are and are not. We are here and not here. We are form and formless all at once,vibration and particle. Thought creates form and not the other way around. It is our desire for order which creates our World. Our body is then subjected to this simple law of reality.

Co-creating our reality:
This creative, healing, living energy is what I understand to be God–the Infinite Supreme Principle of the Universe, neither male nor female, neither thing or being nor spirit, but lovingly called our Father-Mother-God who is All in All.(3 )

Base on this understanding, namely that we are all related, that we are all part of the same universal "body" or essence that we are all One, each one of us affects the whole by our thoughts, by our actions, by our deeds, by our purpose.

To live in harmony with the Infinite Supreme Principle of the Universe is to consecrate our purpose, out deeds, ours action and our thought to our Father-Mother-God. Thus we are not only made in God's image but also a divine part of God. We are a living expression of our Father-Mother-God. This expression is known as our soul. God, in and through us, is experiencing life here on earth in a human body, as such we co-create our reality.

When looked at it from the point of view of the observer, one can feel this idea as being invasive and may be even uncomfortable.

The truth of the matter is that we are not separate from the Divine. There is no observer or observed. We are one and we are all part of this magnificent stain glass window called creation through which love and light shine.

>On the universal energy field and consciousness.

The supreme source of all energy includes our universal consciousness, as well as the consciousness of each species, and groups of souls.

This is where it seems to become complicated: the whole of creation, as we perceive it , appears to become fragmented. This illusion occurs because we are used to catalog and label the energy patterns that we perceive in ordinary reality as well as non-ordinary reality (4 ).

Despite this false perception we are all one yet each parts of the whole has an infinite potential for expression.Therefore, the sum of all these parts is greater that the whole, because the parts themselves cannot be defined precisely, they are not tangible. Body, mind or spirit are all just labels, abstract thoughts.

Animals, plants, rocks and any other perceived forms all have a spirit. Each being a primal essence of consciousness expressed as a signature pattern. As such in shamanism–the oldest form of religion–one will talk of the spirit of Awk or Dolphin as a power animal or a spirit guide whose role is the support and guide us. As such the essence of each species evolves in consciousness, hence the principle of morphogenic fields. (Rupert Sheldrake-The Biology of Life)

Spiritual beings
On the other hand angels, archangels and ascended master are universal spirit or what Jung called archetypes. For this reason they can be perceived by many in different places at the same time. As part of the whole their energy pattern, as we perceive them, are more ethereal than that of earthly creature.

Angels, guardian angels , archangels, spirit guides and ascended master can be perceived by us in many different form . The same angel can be seen as a light figure for one person and a winged angel for another or a warm soothing feeling for someone else and a voice or a thought for another. Yet the identity is the same and the time and place of the contact can be simultaneous.

How is that possible? Because they are pure divine energy and because the idea of time and location are a complete illusion created by our perception and our need for order.

Angels, guardian angels, spirit guides, ascended masters are very real to most us (especially children that have not yet been convinced that their perception are abnormal or ludicrous).

On ESP-Extra Sensory Perception or the sixth sense.
We experience these entities with what is called extra sensory perception (ESP) which is an alternate (or enhanced) filtering system of the energy patterns performed by our five sense. ESP is most commonly called the sixth sense yet it involves the perception of images, sounds or feeling of touch which are very much related to our senses. Clairvoyance or second sight is often said to be perceived by a third eye in the center of the for head. I feel that this is another way to catalog and bring order to our perception. The experience of receiving images with eyes sometimes closed is common to all indigenous cultures and past civilizations.

We refer to this experience, close to the dream state but different from it, as the shamanic journey (Carlos Castaneda/Michael Harner/ Sandra Ingerman/Alberto Villodo and many others) or as conscious dreaming (Robert Moss) or lucid dreaming (Stephen Laberge) or journey out of the body (Robert Monroe)or as Second Sight (Judith Orloff), and also as prayer and meditation (Paramahanse Yogananda).

The " Extra" auditory perception (clairaudience) generates most of the channeled work from medium channeler.

Clairsentience as given on the other hand acknowledgment to intuitive healing and the existence of spirit guides/angels... by feeling their presence around oneself. Shaman use their sense of smell and taste during extraction healing5 as an enhance or "extra" sensory perception.

Using Extra Sensory Perception to heal ourselves and others

Energy practitioners rely on all three from of ESP to communicate with the receiver's guides and their own personal guides. During a healing they perceive and interpret the patterns of energy form the universal energy field as well as the human energy field. The Human Energy Field includes the physical body with all the know systems, plus the Chakra and Meridian Systems and the Etheric field, known by many names, which contains the emotional, mental/astral, karmic and atmic fields.

Everyone of us is part of a signature pattern and as such we are associated with a group of spiritual guides and angels ascended master with whom we "resonate". As we evolve our vibration (energy pattern) changes and our spiritual family changes or expands.

Precognition (revelation of future events) come in the form of visions, voices or the hunch, the feeling in your guts, the knowing that can't be logically explained.

The information can be perceived in "ordinary reality"– our everyday world– as well as non ordinary reality–dream/trance state–depending of the degree of ability (or trust in one abilities) of each person, starting with a simple dream.

The fact that some people can see/hear/feel what others cannot perceive, has often been described as a process of slipping into another dimension or reality. For me it feels like a train changing tracks very quickly back and forth. I am not sure if someone can perceive both reality "absolutely" at once.

Since we are pure energy, ultimately all first occurs on an energetically level. The relationship between people can be likened to invisible cords or connections that are attached at many different levels depending of the relationships. These cords find expression on an emotional levels. Their impact on the physical level of existence, of the party involved, is perceived in the form of energetically blocks or imbalances by some energy practitioners or as intrusions for shamans or entanglement by therapist.

Expressed as fear or love, guilt or pity, desires or revulsion, energetically emotions are attachments or the invisible cords that binds us all. (Family Constellation-Bert Hellinger, Neurobiopsychology-Dietrick Klinghart, The Reconnection-Eric Pearl, Astroshamanism-Franco Santoro)

The role of the practitioner is to bring the receiver back in harmony with the universe and the creative and healing source of all that is-God.

The therapy which focus mainly on working with the energetical cords are: Family Constellation, Neuro-Bio-Psychology. Astroshamanism and Shamanism, Individual Constellation, Theta Healing, energy healing based on the Human Energy Field and connection to the Universal Energy Field.

Other forms of therapy such as Bioenergetic and Core Energetics address the notion of entanglement/cords but on a more physical and space time bound level; probing into the parent/child relationships and issues of distorted perception.

Quantum Healing Hypnosis Therapy™ as well as Shamanism, Reiki and other hands on healing modalities address the cords as healthy or unhealthy patterns of energy perceived as metaphors or as streams of energy that are either draining or nourishing the system.

For Individual Constellation (left), Chantal uses wodden figurines. These are positioned by the client to express the cords (or energy ties) binding family members. In this representation a couple is focusing on two different tie. By identifying the attractions we acknowledege the existance of, in this intance, two departed laying on the ground: one close to the light the other away from it. The constellation revealed that the individual away form the light is seeking forgiveness for having committed suicide and desires to be acknowledged and remembered by the member of his family who unconsciously find their energy drawn out to the departed. The resolution brings the family focus on honoring both departed brought standing in the light. The family is to actively remember and honor the departed.

Consequences of False Perception Appearing Real: F.E.A.R.
Our learned abilities to perceive the world around us separates us from each other and our environment. This has cause us to "use" nature instead of living in harmony with nature. By judging other as different and not acceptable we justify the "right" to alienate and destroy another life form. The False Perception Appearing Real that we may not have enough throws us in the role of the nature tamer.

If this ideology seems to pervade our western culture it has not always been that way. Clusters of souls have always lived in harmony with nature and are fully aware of the Divine relationship as well as their true essence. We have destroyed some and idealized others and in the process separated ourselves even further from the ultimate truth that is our birth right: to be one with God. For our true essence is that we are a divine part of God we are made in the image of God who is this Spirit/energy in All. 6 When in harmony with our true essence the expression of our Divinity is complete and healthy.

The illusion of separateness creates fear expressed as grief, anger, guilt, shame and desires. These are the source of our sorrow which translate in physical imbalance and ailments/dis-ease. Desires are the most subversive of all as they engender attachments. (Ram Dass)

Attachment is the need to organize and rely on our physical/mental abilities to provide for ourselves versus the knowing that we are in complete harmony and hence divinely provide for.

One common form of attachment is the belief that our children are ours instead of God's children. That our children are our burden instead of a gift to enable us and them to rip the fruit of the lessons that our souls have come here to learn. 7 This sense of responsibility engenders much stress which in turn generates energetic blocs that translate into physical ailments.

Addictions from foods and drugs to needs or wants are all forms of attachments. One way around the attachment is to be in the now, to enjoy life now without wants and needs; to give grace at all time and just be here now in harmony with all. To be consciously interconnected yet honoring respecting and loving the infinite multitude of expression of the Divine.

3 The word God is used throughout the site to mean Father-Mother-God" the Infinite Supreme Principle of the Universe neither male nor female, neither form nor formless, neither matter nor spirit but all in all. He and his is used in a non gender related manner and can be replaced by her/she or it –in accord with your own beliefs. Divine or divinely are use in reference to God

4 Ordinary reality is our normal wakeful state of perception. Non-ordinary reality refers to altered state of consciousness from the dream state to different trance state whereas perception can be just as vivid and real yet not having "apparent" consequences on the wakeful sate of being. Yet giving often insight into the ordinary reality such as visions of future events or understanding of a state of being–wisdom. (The terms ordinary /non-ordinary reality was coined by Michael Harner in The Way of the Shaman.)

5 Extraction is a method of identifying and removing an energetic abnormality that is perceived by the shaman as an intrusion and can take shape in many form depending on the beliefs and fears of the shaman as well as the receiver.

8 The word healing is used to define the time period during which the practitioner is open to channel the Universal Life Force Energy from the Divine Source to the receiver.

9 In martial art and eastern literature the tantien in a spot of energy (varying in size from a dim dot to a fits size radiating outward) between second and third Chakra in an area called by Japanese martial art practitioner: the Hara. Hence the name Hara line coined by Barbara Brennan who documented the energy flowing from this point to and from the core center of the earth and to a point at the level of your thymus gland between heart and throat chakra, and running upward thru the body along the spine and out the top of the head to a point called the Individuation point or the connection to the God-Head or Universal Life Force.

Testimonials

I enrolled in a course of Mastery of Awareness taught by Chantal Guillou-Brennan last year and I am honored to be able to try and put into words how impressed I am with this talented, professional woman. I have been extremely fortunate to have experienced several healing modalities performed by Chantal Guillou-Brennan in the past, so when this course was offered, I was confident that it, also, would showcase her talents as a healer and mentor. She has broadened and strengthened my abilities to focus my energy, identify my strengths and limitations and improve and build upon all that is great and possible in my life. She did this by exposing me to a variety of means to explore my world and brought me courage to try new things in order to grow and move my life in a direction of clarity. I would advise and encourage anyone to benefit from the healing powers and knowledge this woman possesses. They would be blessed and forever changed if they are lucky enough to be included in one of her courses or the chance to witness first hand her healing abilities.

Joy Degenaro, IEMI Reiki Master West Haven CT

The Shamanim 101 training was wonderful. Our group consisted of individuals in different levels of their Shamanistic journey; yet, Chantal worked with each of us to make sure each of us would not only learn all we could in the training but would also have the ability to continue our journeys once we completed the course. If you are interest in Shamanism, this is an excellent place to begin.

Holly K. IEMI Reiki 2 Bridgeport CT.

Thank you so much for all of this amazing information! I had such a great time at your Shamanic Dream workshop. I learned so much and now feel a deep calling towards healing. I would like to work with you in healing and connecting with my higher self. I feel a deep yearning to become my greatest version and help assist in this planetary transformation but I have much inner work to do. I felt a strong connection with what you share.

—Rachael J. Fairfield, CT

I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to attend classes and workshops with Chantal Guillou-Brennan. Chantal's knowledge of various healing modalities and spiritual traditions, coupled with her attentive and compassionate manner made me feel safe and supported on my first journey into the exploration of consciousness. With Chantal's guidance, I discovered a whole new dimension that has helped me in my daily life.

Rosemary T., Yoga and Pilates teacher Stratford CT

I enjoyed the Shamanism 101 course. I learned how to go 'beyond myself' to explore and better myself. Twice a month, drum circles let me continue to practice what I learned in Shamanism 101. I highly recommend this course to anyone seeking to learn more about themselves and the world, in ways that move you outside the box. I really believe that this course has helped me with lucid dreaming, as well! Chantal is a wonderful teacher who will guide you and help you grow. This course is the foundation for other courses that she teaches!

Wendy R. Milford, CT.

Thank you for the Shamanism 101 training. It was truly a deep and intense experience which I found to be fascinating and emotional. Your leadership and your knowledge was very helpful in guiding us along in our journeys. I learned so much that I never knew existed. Looking forward to learning more!

Rosemarie Main Shelton CT.

I've recently had the pleasure of studying Reiki 1 with Chantal and can't begin to tell you how grateful I am for finally learning this modality. I had studied with a couple of different teachers and never felt confident enough to practice. With Chantal I found her to be very knowledgeable and she taught in such a way that even the novice beginner could understand. Most important to me was how she honored the sacred space of receiving the attunements separate from class. I left knowing what was expected of me if I chose to move on or not and how simple it can be to use this energy in everyday life. I recommend this class with Chantal as a true blessing and a wonderful gift for self.
